Pros

the people are amazing, ability to network daily, develop multitasking and process building skills. usually sticks to an 8 hr shift, so work/life balance is good.

Cons

overworked sometimes, little to no growth in service department, promoted based off of the team versus individually, large turn around rate in advisors/ managers, little training.

Pros

-Salary -Benefits -Training for technicians is improving

Cons

-Pay rates for new hires will not be as high as mine was. -Benefits get worse and more expensive every year. -Extremely high stress. -FRT times for many repairs are unrealistic -Communication between technicians, service advisors and customers is astonishingly bad. -Upper management for service clearly doesn’t understand what goes into repairing a vehicle. They think it is factory style work and develop unrealistic productivity metrics for the service centers. -Goalposts for metrics are constantly moving. One metric will matter one week, and be completely meaningless the next when another one is put in the spotlight.
